Fedora 14 Hangs with Linux Kernel 2.6.35.10-72.fc14

When I upgraded my Fedora 13 to Fedora 14 last night I found the system freezes at many points. For example, I am unable to open terminal while I am browsing through the firefox. I am unable to open Virtualbox with firefox open. My System hangs when I am  trying to play "Parole Media Player".

I raised a bug with bugzilla.redhat.com and they suggested to update the kernel to update the kernel to 2.6.35.10-74 kernel that fixes that issue.

Things are pretty working now and it seems like 2.6.35.9-x seems to carry bug.

Browse through Fedora Build System at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 and download the latest kernel. Refer http://linuxscoop.blogspot.com/2010/12/how-to-compile-linux-kernel.html to compile the kernel.

Be aware of this bug and enjoy Fedora  Box.
